Bacterial conjunctivitis in Muc1 null mice. (1/97)

PURPOSE: In contrast to wild-type mice, genetically engineered Mucin1 (Muc1) null animals display a marked propensity for development of blepharitis and conjunctivitis. Molecular approaches confirmed the presence of Muc1 mRNA and protein in the conjunctival tissue of wild-type mice and identified the bacterial species in Muc1 null symptomatic mice. METHODS: Muc1 null animals housed in a conventional facility were examined for visually apparent inflammation of the eye and surrounding tissue. Blood taken from overtly affected animals was assayed for antibodies to common murine viral agents. Swabs of infected eyes and whole eye preparations were used to detect and speciate bacterial pathogens. Frozen sections of whole eye, lid margin, and Harderian gland were immunostained with antibodies to Muc1 and cytokeratin 14, both epithelial cell markers. Northern blot analysis and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were performed on RNA isolated from conjunctiva and Harderian gland of wild-type mice to compare relative levels of transcript. RESULTS: Student's unpaired t-test performed on the eye inflammation frequency of Muc1 null mice confirmed a statistical significance (P < 0.01) when compared to wild-type background animals housed in the same room. Analysis of blood samples from affected Muc1 null animals detected no common murine viral pathogens. Bacterial analysis of conjunctival swabs and whole eye preparations demonstrated the presence of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus, Streptococcus type alpha, and Corynebacterium group G2. Muc1 antibody staining of wild-type sections revealed the presence of Muc1 on conjunctival goblet and non-goblet cells and on the epithelium of the Harderian gland. Serial sections stained with cytokeratin 14 antibody confirmed the epithelial nature of cells expressing the Muc1 protein. RNA from conjunctiva and Harderian gland subjected to RT-PCR and northern blot analysis showed an abundance of Muc1 transcript in these tissues. CONCLUSIONS: Muc1 mRNA and protein are present in murine conjunctival and Harderian gland epithelia. Animals lacking Muc1 mRNA and protein are predisposed to developing eye inflammation when compared to wild-type animals with an intact Muc1 gene. Muc1 appears to play a critical protective role at the ocular surface, presumably by acting as a barrier to infection by certain bacterial strains.  (+info)

Identification and antibiotic susceptibility of coagulase negative staphylococci isolated in corneal/external infections. (2/97)

AIMS: To identify and determine antibiotic susceptibility of coagulase negative staphylococci (CoNS) isolated from patients with chronic blepharitis, purulent conjunctivitis, and suppurative keratitis. METHODS: A retrospective review of all culture positive cases of chronic blepharitis, purulent conjunctivitis, and suppurative keratitis between July 1995 and December 1996 was performed. Cases in which CoNS were the sole isolates were analysed. Species identification was performed by using a commercially available standardised biochemical test system. Antibiotic susceptibility to penicillin, gentamicin, tetracycline, erythromycin, ciprofloxacin, and teicoplanin was determined by agar disc diffusion (Kirby-Bauer method). Teicoplanin resistance was confirmed by agar dilution. RESULTS: 42 Staphylococcus epidermidis, four S warneri, three S capitis, two S hominis, one each of S xylosus, S simulans, S equorum, and S lugdunensis were identified. 37 CoNS were penicillin resistant, 12 gentamicin resistant, 28 tetracycline resistant, 18 erythromycin resistant, four ciprofloxacin resistant, and one teicoplanin resistant (MIC, 32 microg/ml). In total, 16 strains were resistant to three or more antibiotics. CONCLUSION: Species of CoNS apart from S epidermidis may be isolated from patients with corneal and external infection. Antibiotic susceptibility of CoNS is unpredictable and multiresistant strains are common. As a result, antibiotic susceptibility testing should be performed in all cases of clinically significant ocular infections caused by CoNS.  (+info)

Suppression of induction of experimental immune mediated blepharoconjunctivitis by tolerogenic conjugates of the antigen and monomethoxypolyethylene glycol. (3/97)

AIM: Covalent conjugates consisting of diverse antigens coupled to optimal numbers of monomethoxypolyethylene glycol (mPEG) molecules have been shown to suppress antigen specific antibody formation. In this study, the possibility was examined that the same conjugates might prevent experimental immune mediated blepharoconjunctivitis (EC, formerly EAC) which had been shown to be caused by CD4(+) T cells-that is, to cell mediated immunity. METHODS: 6-8 week old male Lewis rats were used. The test groups of rats received two intravenous injections, each of 300 microg, of a conjugate of ovalbumin mPEG (OVA(mPEG)(11)) in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), 14 and 28 days before the single immunisation with OVA in complete Freund's adjuvant. The rats were challenged 3 weeks later by eye drops containing OVA; 24 hours later they were sacrificed, and their eyes, blood, and lymph nodes were harvested for histological examination and determination of anti-OVA antibody titres and levels of cellular immunity. Two control groups received PBS or OVA in PBS before immunisation. Furthermore, the possibility that OVA(mPEG)(11) may have induced OVA specific suppressor cells was tested by establishing the effects of the co-transfer of splenocytes from OVA(mPEG)(11) treated rats with OVA primed lymph node cells on the manifestations of EC. RESULTS: Either PBS or OVA pretreated rats, which had not received OVA(mPEG)(11), developed high levels of antibodies and cell mediated immune responses to OVA, and application of eye drops led to blepharoconjunctivitis with massive cellular infiltration. In contrast, pretreatment with OVA(mPEG)(11) prevented cellular infiltration into the lids and conjunctivas, as well as the formation of detectable humoral and cellular immunity against OVA. Co-transfer of splenocytes from OVA(mPEG)(11) treated rats with OVA primed lymph node cells suppressed the cellular infiltration on application of OVA on the conjunctiva. CONCLUSIONS: These data indicate that intravenous injection of OVA(mPEG)(11) conjugates suppressed both humoral and cellular immunity by the effects of antigen specific suppressor cells, thus leading to the inhibition of development of EC.  (+info)

Enhanced secretory group II PLA2 activity in the tears of chronic blepharitis patients. (4/97)

PURPOSE: Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) hydrolyzes phospholipids, one of the important constituents of human meibomian gland secretions. This study was performed to investigate PLA2 type and activity in the tears of chronic blepharitis patients compared to those of normal persons. METHODS: Tear samples of 36 patients and 10 normal persons were collected in non-heparinized microcapillary tubes. PLA2 activity in the tears was measured by Dole's method, and the results of the blepharitis patients were compared to those of the normal persons. The characterization of PLA2 was performed by the head group preference test and the dithiothreitol (DTT) sensitivity test. The classification of PLA2 type was done using Western blot analysis with anti-human secretory PLA2 antibody. RESULTS: No statistically significant differences were found among the six categories of chronic blepharitis. However, the mean PLA2 activity in the tears of the chronic blepharitis patients was about two times higher than that of the normal controls with statistical significance (P < 0.05). The PLA2 substrate specificity test revealed group II PLA2 activity. Furthermore, the group II PLA2 was identified as a 14 kDa band in Western blot analysis using an antibody raised against human secretory group II PLA2. CONCLUSIONS: Secretory group II PLA2 activity was significantly enhanced in the tears of the chronic blepharitis patients compared with that of the normal controls. It is suggested that this increased enzymatic activity may decrease the tear film stability through increased hydrolysis of phospholipids.  (+info)

Herpes simplex virus virion host shutoff (vhs) activity alters periocular disease in mice. (5/97)

During lytic infection, the virion host shutoff (vhs) protein of herpes simplex virus (HSV) mediates the rapid degradation of RNA and shutoff of host protein synthesis. In mice, HSV type 1 (HSV-1) mutants lacking vhs activity are profoundly attenuated. HSV-2 has significantly higher vhs activity than HSV-1, eliciting a faster and more complete shutoff. To examine further the role of vhs activity in pathogenesis, we generated an intertypic recombinant virus (KOSV2) in which the vhs open reading frame of HSV-1 strain KOS was replaced with that of HSV-2 strain 333. KOSV2 and a marker-rescued virus, KOSV2R, were characterized in cell culture and tested in an in vivo mouse eye model of latency and pathogenesis. The RNA degradation kinetics of KOSV2 was identical to that of HSV-2 333, and both showed vhs activity significantly higher than that of KOS. This demonstrated that the fast vhs-mediated degradation phenotype of 333 had been conferred upon KOS. The growth of KOSV2 was comparable to that of KOS, 333, and KOSV2R in cell culture, murine corneas, and trigeminal ganglia and had a reactivation frequency similar to those of KOS and KOSV2R from explanted latently infected trigeminal ganglia. There was, however, significantly reduced blepharitis and viral replication within the periocular skin of KOSV2-infected mice compared to mice infected with either KOS or KOSV2R. Taken together, these data demonstrate that heightened vhs activity, in the context of HSV-1 infection, leads to increased viral clearance from the skin of mice and that the replication of virus in the skin is a determining factor for blepharitis. These data also suggest a role for vhs in modulating host responses to HSV infection.  (+info)

Effects of IL-4 and IL-12 on experimental immune-mediated blepharoconjunctivitis in Brown Norway rats. (6/97)

IL-12 and IL-4 are critical cytokines for Th1 and Th2 differentiation, respectively. To assess the roles of these cytokines in the development of experimental immune-mediated blepharoconjunctivitis (EC) in Brown Norway (BN) rats, their effects were tested either in vitro or in vivo. Draining lymph node cells from rats immunized with ragweed pollen (RW) in Al(OH)3 were collected and cultured for 3 days with RW in the presence of IL-4, IL-12, or PBS as a control. After harvesting the culture supernatants for cytokine ELISA and the cells for cytokine reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, 10 million cells were injected intravenously into syngeneic recipient rats (n = 12 per group). The rats were challenged with RW by eye drops 4 days after transfer. Eyes were harvested for histology 24 h later. Furthermore, IL-12 (500 ng per injection) or PBS was injected intraperitoneally every other day seven times from the day of active immunization (n = 6 per group). One day after the last injection, rats were challenged and EC was evaluated as above. Transfer of cells with IL-4 in vitro augmented eosinophilic infiltration in the conjunctiva compared with the other two groups, whereas IL-12 in vitro suppressed eosinophilic infiltration and increased lymphocytic infiltration. Interferon-gamma production was augmented by IL-12. IL-4 RNA expression was augmented by IL-4. IL-12 administration in vivo augmented lymphocytic infiltration in the conjunctiva without affecting infiltration of eosinophils. In conclusion, IL-4 and IL-12 either in vitro or in vivo augmented Th2 and Th1 immunity, respectively, thus leading to distinct histological features of EC.  (+info)

Hay-Wells syndrome is caused by heterozygous missense mutations in the SAM domain of p63. (7/97)

Hay-Wells syndrome, also known as ankyloblepharon-ectodermal dysplasia-clefting (AEC) syndrome (OMIM 106260), is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by congenital ectodermal dysplasia, including alopecia, scalp infections, dystrophic nails, hypodontia, ankyloblepharon and cleft lip and/or cleft palate. This constellation of clinical signs is unique, but some overlap can be recognized with other ectodermal dysplasia syndromes, for example ectrodactyly--ectodermal dysplasia--cleft lip/palate (EEC; OMIM 604292), limb--mammary syndrome (LMS; OMIM 603543), acro-dermato-ungual-lacrimal-tooth syndrome (ADULT; OMIM 103285) and recessive cleft lip/palate--ectodermal dysplasia (CLPED1; OMIM 225060). We have recently demonstrated that heterozygous mutations in the p63 gene are the major cause of EEC syndrome. Linkage studies suggest that the related LMS and ADULT syndromes are also caused by mutations in the p63 gene. Thus, it appears that p63 gene mutations have highly pleiotropic effects. We have analysed p63 in AEC syndrome patients and identified missense mutations in eight families. All mutations give rise to amino acid substitutions in the sterile alpha motif (SAM) domain, and are predicted to affect protein--protein interactions. In contrast, the vast majority of the mutations found in EEC syndrome are amino acid substitutions in the DNA-binding domain. Thus, a clear genotype--phenotype correlation can be recognized for EEC and AEC syndromes.  (+info)

Primary herpes simplex virus type 1 infection of the eye triggers similar immune responses in the cornea and the skin of the eyelids. (8/97)

Herpetic stromal keratitis (HSK) and blepharoconjunctivitis in humans are thought partly to result from immunopathological responses to herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). The corneas of NIH mice were inoculated with HSV-1 (strain McKrae) and mice were examined for signs of disease and infection on days 1, 4, 7, 10, 14 and 21. The eyes and eyelids of infected and control mice were processed for immunohistochemistry and double stained for viral antigens and one of the following cell surface markers (Gr-1, F4/80, CD4, CD8, CD45R or MHC class II) or one of the following cytokines (IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12 or IFN-gamma). All infected mice developed signs of HSK by day 4 and blepharitis by day 7 and these both persisted until day 21, when signs of resolution where apparent. Virus was detected during the first week of infection and became undetectable by day 10. Large numbers of Gr-1(+) cells (neutrophils) infiltrated infected corneas and eyelids in areas of viral antigen and CD4(+) T cells increased significantly in number after virus clearance. In both sites, the predominant cytokines were IL-6, IL-10, IL-12 and IFN-gamma, with few IL-2(+) and IL-4(+) cells. These observations suggest that the immune responses in the cornea are similar to those in the eyelids but, overall, the responses are not clearly characterized as either Th1 or Th2. In both sites, the neutrophil is the predominant infiltrating cell type and is a likely source of the cytokines observed and a major effector of the disease process.  (+info)

Blepharitis is a condition that causes inflammation in the eyelids. Many people have blepharitis. It is also called granulated eyelids. There are two types of Blepharitis:. Anterior blepharitis - This type affects the outer front part of the eyelid, where the eyelashes are attached. The two most common causes of anterior blepharitis are bacteria (Staphylococcus) and scalp dandruff.. Posterior blepharitis - This type affects the inner eyelid, in the moist part that makes contact with the eye. This part of the eyelid contains oil (meibomian) glands. Problems with these glands cause posterior blepharitis.. People with certain skin disorders are more likely to get posterior blepharitis. These disorders include acne rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis (scalp dandruff).. ...

Inflammation of the eyelids is known as blepharitis. The margins of the eye lids are inflamed, causing redness and itching of the eye lids. This problem recurs after intervals and is the leading cause of recurrent pink eye in elderly people. Often times this condition mimics Dry Eyes because of the sensation it causes under the persons eye lids.. There are two types of blepharitis - anterior blepharitis and posterior blepharitis. The former affects the front part of the lids, near the lashes. It is caused either by the Staphylococcus bacteria or a condition similar to dandruff, known as seborrheic dermatitis. The back of the lids is affected by the latter, and this affected area is actually what makes contact with the eye. The oil glands present in the area are the causal factors.. Posterior blepharitis is more common than anterior blepharitis. The primary treatment for blepharitis consists of a daily lid margin hygiene. Blepharitis is oftentimes a lifelong condition.

Azithromycin in DuraSite® for the treatment of blepharitis Jodi LuchsDepartment of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY, USAAbstract: Blepharitis is a common inflammatory disease of the eyelid. Posterior blepharitis affects the posterior lamella of the eyelid and involves inflammation of the meibomian glands, whereas anterior blepharitis affects the anterior lamella of the eyelid and the eyelashes; either version can be inflammatory or infectious in nature. Each of these conditions can incite or propagate the other; anterior blepharitis, if not treated, can lead to meibomian gland disease, and vice versa. Blepharitis is typically chronic, and can be associated with a variety of systemic diseases such as dermatitis, as well as ocular diseases such as dry eye, conjunctivitis, or keratitis.

Blepharitis, in laymans words, is the inflammation of the eyelids accompanied with such symptoms as redness, itching, burning, excessive tearing, blurred vision, and dry eye. These symptoms are associated with bacterial infections on the lids. As currently there is no effective cure for blepharitis, involves controlling the condition. In most cases, blepharitis can be effectively prevented by maintaining adequate hygiene. But for more serious cases, medications or natural treatment of blepharitis should also be considered.. The basic treatment of blepharitis involves keeping the lids clean. You should apply warm compresses to your lids to loosen crusts and then scrub the eyelids with a cotton swab. Baby shampoo has been used traditionally for eyelid hygiene, but it is not antibacterial and long time use of it will make the skin dry. As blepharitis does not disappear completely and reoccurrence is common, regular eyelid hygiene is important to prevent its reoccurrence.. is not a serious ...

Blepharitis TreatmentsBlepharitis Treatments
Blepharitis is a condition where the eyelids become inflamed. The part of the eyelid where the eyelashes grow is mostly affected by this condition. It may affect one eyelid or both eyelids of the patient. The condition mostly occurs when tiny oil glands located near the base of your eyelashes get clogged. This condition may lead to red eyes and eye irritation. Blepharitis is considered a chronic disease which is quite difficult to treat. Hence, most of the patients may not require blepharitis treatments to get rid of the illness. On the other hand, this condition cannot be 100% cured, but the symptoms could be controlled with a proper eyelid hygiene routine. This read offers an overview of blepharitis treatments. For more information please visit http://www.dryeyesclinic.co.uk/Treatment.. The main symptoms of the condition include red and watery eyes, itchy eyelids, greasy eyelids, crusted eyelashes, loss of eyelashes, sensitivity to light, and frequent blinking. The best way to treat ...

Clinical manifestation. Blepharitis in dogs occurs most often chronically, with bilateral lesion of the eyelids. The disease is accompanied by redness and swelling of the eyelids around the edges, their thickening, severe itching - the animal constantly seeks to comb the itchy spots, while seeding the tissues with microbial flora and aggravating the course of inflammation.. The clinical picture of blepharitis is characterized by lacrimation, blepharospasm, the discharge from the eyes of serous, mucous or purulent outflows of yellowish color, drying on the surface of the eyelids in the form of crusts. The long course of the purulent process often leads to inflammation of the cornea due to constant irritation of the eyeball with lytic enzymes contained in pus.. Blepharitis can occur foci or diffuse. Focal superficial blepharitis is barley - inflammation of the sebaceous gland of the lid of the eyelid. With the defeat of the middle layer of eyelids occurs meybomit, in which meibomian glands are ...

Blepharitis | Manitoba Association of OptometristsBlepharitis | Manitoba Association of Optometrists
Blepharitis is a chronic condition, and there is no cure, but appropriate treatments can help manage symptoms. While over-the-counter treatments for blepharitis are available, it is advisable to consult your optometrist if you experience these symptoms. There are several ways to treat blepharitis. Cleaning away the crusty material around the lashes with warm compresses (at least twice daily) helps keep the lashes clean and improves the flow of the oily component of tears. Commercial lid scrubs (medicated pads similar to the ones used to remove eye makeup) help clean the eyelids further. An effective substitute for commercial lid scrubs is a small amount of baby shampoo diluted with warm water and applied to the eyelashes with a cotton ball.

Staphylococcus blepharitis is caused by a germ called Staphylococci, commonly known as staph. It often begins in childhood and continues throughout adulthood. This form of the condition results in collar scales on lashes, crusting, and chronic redness at the lid margin. Dilated blood vessels, loss of lashes, styes, and chalazia (nodules on the eyelids) also occur.. Seborrhea blepharitis is the most common and least severe form of this condition. It is not an infection but is caused by improper function of the oil glands, which causes greasy, waxy scales to accumulate along the eyelid margins. Seborrhea may be a part of an overall skin disorder that affects other areas. Hormones, nutrition, general physical condition and stress are factors in seborrhea.. Ulcerative blepharitis is a less common but more severe condition that may be characterized by matted, hard crusts around the eyelashes, which, when removed, leave small sores that may bleed or ooze.

BLEPHARITIS | Rotorua Eye ClinicBLEPHARITIS | Rotorua Eye Clinic
Marginal blepharitis is chronic inflammation of the edges (margins) of the eyelids. It is a common condition.. ​. The eyelids contain special glands called sebaceous glands, which produce oily secretions. These secretions form an important part of the tear film. In blepharitis, these glands often become overactive and produce too much of these oily secretions, which become thick and turbid. This reduces the quality of the tears, which in turn, irritates the eyes. Scaly secretions form on the edges of the eyelids. Sometimes bacteria grow on these causing even more inflammation.. Symptoms. ​. When people suffer from blepharitis, they may have varying symptoms. Many people have no symptoms at all. Others feel burning or itching. Often there is a feeling as if there is something in the eyes, like sand or gravel. The eyes may feel tired or weary. The symptoms are often worse at the end of the day or in situations where the eyes dry out more quickly. The eyelid margins may be red and appear ...

During the 6-8 minute BlephEx™ treatment, we will gently exfoliate the lashes and eyelids to remove the crusted discharge from blepharitis. Prior to treatment, a numbing drop is placed in each eye to allow maximum comfort to the patient. During exfoliation, a medical grade micro-sponge gently and accurately spins along the lashes and eyelids to remove the debris. One sanitary, disposable micro-sponge is used for each eye to prevent the spread of bacteria. Last, the eyes are thoroughly rinsed. Prior to the patient returning home, they will be instructed to maintain lid hygiene with LidHygenix foam cleanser . While home treatments are effective removing some debris, normally patients return every twice a year for follow-up treatment. As with regular dental cleanings, BlephEx™ treatment should be performed every six months to maintain the health of the eyelids and control over blepharitis. ...

We report a case of a 30-year-old woman with persistent itching in the left eyelid which was unsuccessfully treated under the diagnosis of allergic blepharoconjunctivitis. Careful ophthalmic examination revealed seven bugs with multiple red pinpoint excretions and numerous small translucent oval eggs (nits) coating the eyelashes. The patient was successfully treated with mechanical removal of all the lice and nits from the eyelashes. The specimen proved histopathologically to be the Phthirus pubis infestation. The Phthirus pubis infestation is usually associated with poor hygiene in overcrowded or undeveloped ...

Now that the cellular infiltrates in both acute and chronic disease are better characterised, there are significant implications for treatment of allergic eye disease (for review see Abelson and Schaefer73).. Topical therapy is the preferred treatment in mild diseases of SAC and PAC. Since neither are life threatening, or even sight threatening, experimental systemic treatments are not indicated in the way they may be in more serious ocular allergic disease such as AKC. Powerful anti-CD4+ T cell agents, such as cyclosporin, should be kept for severely affected cases with keratopathy. In the T cell driven processes of VKC and AKC27 28 specific anti-TH-2 treatment of VKC, rather than blanket anti-T cell therapy, may be a future option.. In SAC and PAC, where mast cells and histamine release are involved in the disease pathogenesis, both topical and systemic therapies have been tried. Oral histamine H1 receptor antagonists (antihistamines) such as astemizole, terfanidine, and loratidine have been ...

Georgia eye physician | GA Eye Physicians and Surgeons - Part 3Georgia eye physician | GA Eye Physicians and Surgeons - Part 3
First, light entering the eye must pass through its clear outer surface, or cornea, which is kept smooth, clean, and lubricated by a thin coating of tears. These tears are produced by specialized cells in the eyelids, but damage from environmental factors like smoke, pollution, and ultraviolent light can, over time, cause the eyelids to become inflamed, potentially impairing tear production. This condition, commonly known as blepharitis, creates the sensation that a cloudy film is covering the eye, partly obscuring vision. As evaporation of the tears and drying out of the corneal surface gets worse, the condition can evolve into chronic dry eye, which may require the use of surgical tear plugs to fully relieve. In the early stages, however, blepharitis can be treated simply with warm compresses, artificial tears, oral antibiotics and even topical immunosuppressive agents that decrease the inflammatory response.. Once the light enters the eye it is focused by a clear, flexible lens, which can ...

Eyelid Lesions and Eye Tumors - NYEEEyelid Lesions and Eye Tumors - NYEE
What are eyelid lesions and eye tumors?. Eyelid lesions are abnormal growths of tissue that can be either benign (for example cysts and styes) or malignant (skin cancers such as basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma). Tumors can grow in the eye socket, or orbit, the space around and behind the eyeball. Orbital tumors can displace the eye or push it forward to create a bulging effect known as proptosis. If left untreated, tumors can become painful, lead to loss of vision, invade surrounding tissues or even spread to other parts of the body.. How are eye lesions and eye tumors treated?. The first step in treatment of a lesion or a tumor of the eye is an accurate diagnosis. This is obtained by performing a biopsy of the lesion to determine if it is benign, pre-cancerous, or cancerous. The Ophthalmic Pathology Service at New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai (NYEE) offers onsite pathology services, allowing our surgeons to closely collaborate with pathologists to obtain ...

A good Boise eyelash extensions technician will take the time to provide education to the client about how to ensure the well being of both their natural eyelashes and their eyes over the long term. Client education should include proper aftercare of the eyelash extensions. At Tease Hair and Lash Studio, we have seen many clients in our salon that have been told to never get their lashes wet, when in fact, after the first 24 hours, you should be washing your lashes every day with an oil free cleanser. This must be done to ensure that skin oils, skin cells, eye secretions, environmental dust, and makeup are removed from the eyelash line. If this cleansing is not done on a daily basis, the eyelash area will become itchy. Chronic unclean eyelash lines also leads to a condition called Blepharitis which is redness and irritation of the eyes and eyelids. This condition will lead to loss of the natural eyelashes, eye infections, clogged, painful eyelash follicles, and increased risk of infestation of ...

Online Business Operator: This is Why Your Eyes Get Goopy and Crusty in the Morning!Online Business Operator: This is Why Your Eyes Get Goopy and Crusty in the Morning!
So when should you start worrying? Pettey says that normal eye crust should by white or light cream in color. Any other color could indicate unhealthy function. If the discharge becomes yellow or green, that can be a sign of bacterial conjunctivitis - a form of pink eye. Also, chronic conditions like blepharitis, dry eye, and allergic conjunctivitis are known to cause sleep crust. For the most part this is a normal part of the conditions, but in some cases there can be so much eye mucus that your lashes will stick together, which probably means youre due for a visit to the ophthalmologist. Besides the crusting, your eye doctor can help you alleviate other symptoms you may have, including redness, itchiness, watery eyes, or a burning sensation in the eye, says Pettey. Sorry about your eye boogers, but unless youve noticed a major change, theyre probably healthy. ...

Acute bacterial infections of the eye: their aetiology and treatment. | British Journal of OphthalmologyAcute bacterial infections of the eye: their aetiology and treatment. | British Journal of Ophthalmology
The aerobic microbial flora of 823 eyes with acute bacterial conjunctivitis, corneal ulceration, dacryocystitis, discharging sockets, blepharitis, and postoperative infections has been investigated. Staphylococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and nonfermenting Gram-negative bacilli including Pseudomonas aeruginosa were the main pathogens. Fermenting coliforms were also infrequently isolated. The least overall resistance of 30.9% was to chloramphenicol, but no one antibiotic was effective against all pathogens. Cloxacillin is the best drug for staphylococcal and polymyxin B for pseudomonas infections. ...

Dry eye has many symptoms including blur, excess watering, scratchy and gritty feelings , tiredness, glare sensitivity and many more. Sufferers are often given lubricant drops and told they will need to use them for the rest of their lives. Unfortunately, MANY OF THESE PEOPLE DO NOT ACTUALLY HAVE DRY EYE and could save a lot of unnecessary discomfort and cost if correctly diagnosed and treated. It is important to correctly assess the underlying cause which in many cases can be resolved. Three of the commonly misdiagnosed causes are meibomian gland disease, blepharitis, and demodex mites. These conditions are VERY COMMON and can usually be treated quite easily.. ...

Eye Doctor - Ophthalmologists - Cape Town | Constant Red EyesEye Doctor - Ophthalmologists - Cape Town | Constant Red Eyes
Author - Dr Japie Grové. One of the most common problems encountered by ophthalmologists is that of chronic red and irritated eyes. Studies show the problem to be more prevalent among woman and people older than age 50. Although there are hundreds of possible causes for this problem, the three major culprits are Dry eye syndrome, Blepharitis, and Allergic Conjunctivitis.. Dry eye syndrome (DES):. It was shown that up to 20% of the United States population suffers from mild DES and at least 7.8% of woman and 3.5% of men will have moderate to severe DES. Symptoms include constant redness, blurry vision and a gritty irritated feeling almost like having sand in the eye. Lifestyle adjustments can help with the symptoms: avoid air conditioned places, Air humidifiers, wearing wrap around sunglasses on windy days and eating food rich in Omega 3/6 like salmon or flaxseed oil etc.. The mainstay of therapy is artificial tear supplements; there is a whole range of products from artificial tear drops to ...

Amblyopia: Reduced vision, usually in one eye, that is not due to disease or injury, and is largely not correctable. Possible causes for this condition include strabismus (lazy eye/eye turn), anisometropia (a large difference in the prescriptions for each eye), or any condition that affects visual development-especially in young children.. Astigmatism: A condition that causes blurred vision due either to the irregular shape of the cornea, the clear front cover of the eye, or sometimes the curvature of the lens inside the eye.. Blepharitis: An inflammation of the eyelids and eyelashes causing red, irritated, itchy eyelids and the formation of dandruff like scales on eyelashes.. Cataract: A cloudy or opaque area in the normally clear lens of the eye. Cataracts begin developing in early childhood and progress slowly throughout our lives. Eventually they will affect vision and are typically treated by removing the lens and replacing it with an artificial one. Other forms of cataracts include toxic, ...

Dry Eye Disease and TreatmentDry Eye Disease and Treatment
There are many treatment options for dry eyes which are highly dependent upon the cause and severity of the condition. Many mild forms of DED can be alleviated using artificial tears or lubricant eye drops to make up for the lack of natural tears usually produced by your eyes. If over-the-counter drops dont alleviate your symptoms, your doctor might prescribe prescription drops that actually stimulate tear production or steroids for short-term relief.. More severe cases of dry eyes might be treated with a punctal insert which is a tiny insert containing a slow-release lubricating substance that is placed inside the lower eyelid. Since DED is often related to eyelid inflammation known as blepharitis your doctor may prescribe a heated hot compress mask, specialty eyelid scrubs and sometimes an antibiotic ointment. Finally, punctal plugs might be recommended for severe cases which would be inserted into the tear ducts to reduce the tear drainage in your eyes to keep them from drying out.. If the ...

A sty, medically referred to as a hordeolum, is an acute infection of the oil glands of the eyelids that results in a firm, red lump on the eyelid. It may eventually come to a head as it fills with pus.. Sties are caused by dirt, makeup, or other debris that block and infect the oil gland with bacteria. The bacteria known as staphylococcus are responsible for 90 to 95 percent of sties. Other bacteria may also be involved in some cases.. People are at higher risk of having sties if they suffer from a condition called blepharitis, which causes inflammation of the eyelash follicles. Factors like poor hygiene, stress and hormonal changes may also contribute to this problem. You may have more than one sty at a time. ...

Epiphora (excessive tearing)Epiphora (excessive tearing)
In order for the eye to remain healthy, it must remain moist. Each time you blink, the eyelid spreads the tears over the surface of the eye and pumps excess tears into a duct that drains the tears into your nose. That is why your nose runs when you cry. Excessive tearing not only could be annoying, it also could be interfering with vision if severe. Tearing problem can be due to either excess production of the tears or deficiency of tear drainage.. Any irritation to the surface of the eye can lead to reflex tearing. Most commonly, blepharitis (inflammation of eyelid margin), dry eye syndrome, allergy of the conjunctiva (skin covering white part of the eye) and corneal abrasion (scratches) are all possible causes of excessive, reflex tearing. The treatment should target the source of the problem, usually involving optimizing the health of the ocular surface and providing sufficient lubrication to the eye.. Tears drain from the inner corner of the eye via two opening (puncta), one in the upper ...

Eye Care InformationEye Care Information
Once your optometrist knows what is causing your dry eye, they can give you advice on how to manage it. There are four main ways to help you dry eye.. 1. Avoid using make-up and keep your eyelids clean. Eyeliner, particularly when put on the rim of your eyelid, may block the maibomian glands that produce the oily part of your tear film. This may cause the area around your eyes to be inflamed. It is also important to make sure you keep your eyelids clean, particularly if you have blepharitis.. 2. Be aware of your environment. There are some environments that may make your eyes feel more dry. High temperatures and central heating may increase the evaporation of your tears and make your eyes feel more dry, as can draughts and air conditioning.. You may find it helpful to reduce the temperature of your central heating at home and try to avoid draughts near your face, for example by directing car air vents away from your face. Some people find that using a humidifier to put more water into the air ...

Pterygium - WikipediaPterygium - Wikipedia
Pterygium refers to any winglike triangular membrane occurring in the neck, eyes, knees, elbows, ankles or digits. The term comes from the Greek word pterygion meaning wing. Popliteal pterygium syndrome, which affects the legs. Pterygium (conjunctiva) A pterygium grows in response to exposure to ultraviolet light. They are more common in light-skinned people living nearer the equator, particularly where outdoor activities are popular. As the pterygium grows, it replaces the corneal epithelium, and erodes the superficial layers beneath it. These layers are Bowmans membrane, and the anterior corneal stromal lamellae. The pterygium pulls and distorts the cornea as it enlarges. A pterygium reduces the vision in several ways: Distortion of the corneal optics. This begins usually when the pterygium is greater than 2mm from the corneal edge (limbus). Disruption of the tear film. The tear film is the first lens in the eye. Pterygia are associated with eyelid inflammation, called Blepharitis. Growth ...

Ocular Virulence of Candida albicans Strains | IOVS | ARVO JournalsOcular Virulence of Candida albicans Strains | IOVS | ARVO Journals
Purpose: : To evaluate virulence of Candida albicans homozygous mutants in a murine keratitis model. Methods: : Corneas of 3-5 immunocompetent adult female BALB/c mice were topically inoculated with a wild-type strain of C. albicans, a transposon-induced homozygous mutant (rbt1-/-), its parental control (DAY286), knockout homozygous mutants BCa7-4 (rbt1-/-) and BCa11-3 (rbt4-/-), or its parental control (CAF2-1). The fungal load inoculated onto the cornea was at concentrations of 105 or 106 colony-forming units (cfu) following corneal scarification. Mock-inoculated, scarified eyes served as controls. Eyes were scored daily for 8 days post infection (PI) using a 12-point scale to categorize corneal disease. Results: : At 106 cfu, wild-type C. albicans human isolate (SC5314) had a high degree of virulence in the murine cornea, and the fungal strains used to generate the mutants (DAY286 and CAF2-1) had similar corneal pathogenicity (P , 0.43 and , 0.11, respectively). Likewise, the rbt1-/- mutant ...

Chalazion is, in its simplest form, a lump in the eyelid. These lumps are similar in appearance to styes but are typically much larger. Chalazia (multiple chalazion) are often related to blepharitis, an inflammation of the eyelids.. A chalazion is a lump that can appear along the edge of an eyelid and can be sore to the touch, red and at times crusted. The majority of chalazia will go away on their own accord without requiring treatment. Should the chalazion persist after the use of warm compresses and gentle massage your doctor may need to irrigate and drain the affected area. This is a simple procedure and done in the clinic.. The most common symptoms of chalazia include:. ...
